Date: Thu, 15 May 1997 22:06:23 -0700 Message-ID: <2239.863759183@time.cdrom.com> From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" Sender: owner-multimedia@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk And I'm not talking about the new DVD stuff, I'm talking about the older Video CD "standard" which was promulgated by Phillips and others. I can play these CDs just fine in my CD-I player (with hardware MPEG decoder plugged in the back) but it's a PAL device, it runs off of 220V and, basically, I'd much rather view them on my FreeBSD box if I could. :-) So, anyone have any clues for me? I used to not even be able to read their funny record size before, but I think that the new Plexstore 12CS drive I have (or, at the very least, my HP 4020i) should be able to handle that if I can find some sort of software for handling the decompression. And no Windows solutions please - I don't even have Windows on this box. ;) Thanks! Jordan
